Secondly, I really liked how the motifs are connecting to each other. Leave that darning needle in the bag as you won’t need it. You simply complete the final round with the trim and connect it with the neighbour. For this project, you need to make all 39 motifs first before doing the final border/connection round.

For this pattern, there are written instructions and crochet diagrams available to follow. In the tutorial I have provided, this is Part 1 of 2 of doing this shawl. I show you how to make 1 flower without the joining border as I need to make more before I get there.

Mikey, The Crochet Crowd

Thanks for visiting my website, TheCrochetCrowd.com. I've been crocheting since I was 14 years old and genuinely excited by yarn and projects to crochet. Serving the globe has it's challenges in reaching audiences of difference languages and cultures but it's remarkable all the same. One of the best elements of crochet is that yarn and project ideas know no borders.

Mikey, I am currently making the Motifs for the Garden Flower Shawl and am trying to get them all done before Mother’s Day. Will you have the Part 2 Tutorial up before then? I know you injured yourself and no pressure – Being a Leftie, it helps so much to have your tutorials when I’m not a strong pattern reader. Thanks for all you do!!

Thank you so much, Mikey! I am making several shawls for my niece’s wedding (bride + bridemaids + mother) and I was just thinking the other day…I need some fast, but gorgeous patterns…and wouldn’t it be great if I could crochet the motifs together, but at the END…WOW…my wish has been granted. I am currently crocheting a join-as-you-go motif shawl, and let me tell you…I wish the joining could all be done after the motifs are done. This pattern is EXACTLY what I wanted. I didn’t have to hunt for my next pattern…you sent it right to me! Thank you for including it in your newsletter. By the way, I look forward to each of your newsletters. They are a day brightener!
